The project saw the participation of numerous local Pacific Northwest firms. Colas Construction served as the general contractor, Merryman Barnes Architects as associate architect firm and Mayer/Reed as landscape architectural firm and environmental graphics designer.

OCC can hold more than 600,000 guests a year and over 500 events.

OCC executive director Craig Stroud said: “OCC is Oregon’s premier convention centre, and so we made sure to keep our local community and setting top-of-mind throughout the planning and implementation process of this project. Subsequently, we concentrated on aspects that are important and unique to Oregon.

“I think the results of this focus are evident, both in the impact and originality of the Pacific Northwest-inspired design elements, but also in the level of care that was taken to improve the accessibility, sustainability and flexibility aspects and capabilities we offer our guests, building-wide.”
